Since I can't find any source that started this ... I think it's just a rumor.

I don't doubt the talent of Jim Carrey, but this is nothing for him ... I mean ... Nathan Drake? No way. Fans of the games will be upset by this choice and I would understand. This is something Mark Wahlberg should do, maybe even Ryan Gosling. But I guess they will go for a younger cast, so I'm thinking Garrett Hedlund or maybe Liam Hemsworth.
